Keeper, not owner. My mistakeI have requested more info - unfortunately a bit technically challenged so not able to find info. Will update in due course if more info comes available.They have confirmed they used payment machine on site.Not sure why it is relevant whether they have identified themselves as driver if payment was genuinely made and the error seems to be on the Operator's side?

Posting this for a friend that is having difficulty. They are the registered owner of the vehicle.-Parked on 18/01/26 and paid for parking (payment confirmation shown below)-Received Parking Charge from Saba dated 28/01 for £100 from ZZPS-Sent ZZPS copy of parking payment confirmation on 13/02 - no response received-Sent an appeal on 03/03 - received this response:Thank you for your recent online appeal, all comments have been noted accordingly.I note you state you made payment but from the information provided we are unable to locate your payment against your vehicle registration.So, we can look to locate your payment please confirm if you made payment on site at a machine or by the application?If payment made by the application, please confirm:•  The email address attached to the application.•  The telephone number attached to the payment.•  Any other vehicles on the application.If you made payment on site at the machine, please confirm:•  The time you made payment (as you drove in/out)•  The last 4 digits from the card details used to make payment.•  Any other vehicle that you use that you may have entered in error.I have held the account for 7 days to allow the requested evidence to be provided.-Received letter from ZZPS dated 20/04 warning of enforcement action to be taken-Received letter from GCTT dated 05/05 warning of transfer to solicitorsWhat are their options at this stage? I am not clear whether they responded to the initial appeals email requesting the payment information and whether there was perhaps an error when inputting the location number whilst making payment.

Claimant had discontinued proceedings. Result! Thank you all for your help.

Was it the correct course of action to refuse the settlement, in this particular case?

Defendant received a call today from SCMS, having missed their initial appointment confirmation email and not realised who they were talking to. They thought it was the defendant's representative (DCB Legal).The SMCS caller  was pushing for a reduced settlement of £200 in place of the £265 current owed amount. They also said that they could not see that the Defendant had any valid claim in Court and it would therefore be in their best interest to settle.  The D, not realising that they were speaking to the SCMS, refused the offer, and a subsequent "Mediation Not Settled" email arrived shortly after.Was this the correct course of action? I was not aware that the SCMS advise parties what their chances of winning a case are.

Quote from: jfollows on 11 Jul, 2025 14:31The claimant’s N180? Looks like a court issued N180 for the Defendant

Received form N180 today. Is this normal process? They wish to allocate to Small Track.

@stamfordman I think the OP just wants some helpful comments. If they wanted criticism they probably would have said so in their post. Let's try and be nice. I know you're big cheese on the forum but why not keep it friendly so newbies can come here and get the help they need without being intimated.

I have asked the question.In the meanwhile is the defence similar to this case?https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/initial-parking-oldham-overstay-parking/

Posting this for a friend. Parking paid for but overstayed the paid time.Paperwork arrived in the post - nothing on windscreen.Any recourse?

Docs sent by email. Do I need to serve to the Claimant as well, or is that done automatically by the Court?

Got it thanks

Many thanks.Maybe a daft question, but why does the draft order not have any case reference related to it? I am assuming it was made in relation to a specific case.
